Who is on Google+?

Jul 8, 2011#1

MindDetective

I just got an invite today and my circles are a bit thin.

Jul 8, 2011#2

Shakey

Do you have any invites to hand out?

Jul 8, 2011#3

Allen who is Quiet

I'm on Google+.

Espy is waiting for Google++, apparently.

I don't know, actually. I am still poking around. If I do, some of them go to family and friends first, obviously.

Are you saying I'm not your friend?

Jul 8, 2011#6

MindDetective

Who are you again? :-p I appear to be able to invite people but I can't see if I have a limited number of invites yet.

Post or PM me your email addresses and I'll send out invites.

Well yeah, I mean, I'm american so why not go for the gusto right?

Do you get unlimited invites, then?

Jul 8, 2011#11

Espy

But really, I'll take an invite, I've been curious.

Jul 8, 2011#12

Shakey

Well, if you do end up with extra invites let me know. I'll just be sitting here in the corner. All by myself. Waiting.

This is starting to sound like a scam. Are you from Nigeria?

Jul 8, 2011#18

Allen who is Quiet

Yes, but I really will invite you to google+.

Going to be away for a little while. Keep PMing me and I'll send invites when I get back.

Jul 8, 2011#19

Shakey

Yay! Allen got me on. My profile page is https://plus.google.com/u/0/106057804212590454667 if anyone feels like adding me.

Jul 8, 2011#20

Covar

He will

It's so googly!

So it's hard to find people without knowing their real name or email (this is a good thing I think). Anywho I'm making a Halforums circle, anyone that wants to add me to G+ I'll add them back in return.

Here's my Profile Link.

Thanks Allen! I'll set this all up when I get off work later...

It's going to be hard remembering who people are.

<--- J__ T____ I do think you can find a person's nickname on their profile. Mine is obviously MindDetective.

Just got in. Interesting but there's not much content.

Feel free to add me and I will add you

Jul 8, 2011#27

drifter

So, Google+ is eventually going to be open to everybody, right? I just want to know if there's any benefit to getting in early beyond 'dood, I'm in.'

Jul 8, 2011#28

Dave

My biggest problem is that I have a metric fuckton of people it's pulling in due to it looking through my gmail account and pulling out every obscure person I've ever conversed with. So there's a ton of people I have no idea who they are.

Jul 8, 2011#29

Dave

I know I don't have to add them, but I DO have to wade through them to find people I know and some people I know their handle and not so much their real name.

I sent you an invite.

I literally just checked my Gmail. I feel really, REALLY stupid :oops:

I'm just a technician, so I run the samples and pass the data on for others to process/analyze.

Jul 8, 2011#37

The analyzing is the best part!

Hey, without the tech, nothing would get done. I love my techs!

makare

I'm on it but what is it?

So far it seems like FB without the fun part.

Jul 8, 2011#40

MindDetective

It is a Facebook/Twitter mashup with some interesting security quirks, video teleconferencing, and no games.

I'm liking G+ for the simplistic style and the Android app integration. I wish there was an Ipad app because they mobile version is good, but limited.

I'll see if it catches on. Right now, it's the "cool internet thing" to try out. I didn't join Facebook until pretty much all my friends were already on there. Got a Twitter but almost never use it.

Jul 9, 2011#47

makare

I don't like the interface very much. It is so blah.

Jul 9, 2011#48

Dave

You could always have your Facebook Stream into your Google+

Jul 9, 2011#49

Ravenpoe

If anyone has the integration and push to make something as big and ubiquitous as facebook, it's Google.

Jul 9, 2011#50

Dei

Yeah cause Google hasn't crash and burned at that before, amirite?

Jul 9, 2011#51

Ravenpoe

I don't believe I said anything about them never failing. Merely that they have the potential.

AMIRITE?

Awesome.

On a related note is there a way to do text links like this as opposed to posting the summary or URL?

No, Bumble. Give me your ADDRESS and I'll make your dreams come true. If you know what I mean...

Assuming your dream is to be robbed by a fat guy.

Bumble, give me superpowers.

I'm there too. I'm also a cool guy.

Chad Sexington

I'm on, but no offense, I will probably get tired of seeing posts from people whose lives I know nothing of... However, having stalked all the linked profiles now, I will say how pleased I am that most of you have managed to include profile pics of some sort. Most of my friends still have the ugly anonymous blue head thing. Lame, and not at all aesthetically pleasing.

Jul 12, 2011#61

Shakey

I still have the ugly blue thing, and yes, I agree that I am lame.

Jul 12, 2011#62

Covar

I need an updated picture that isn't 2 years old. Unfortunately I take horrible pictures.

Jul 13, 2011#63

Fun Size

Actually, that's funny. As the camera wielder, there are almost never any current pictures of me in existence. Hell, I took my current profile pic, and that was just for a gag.

Aug 18, 2011#64

Any one else still using this? Got an invite last night and while it seems like it could be interesting there doesn't seem to be much to it at the moment and few people actually using it.

Anyone wanting an invite as well I could definitely send some if you pm me your email.

Chad Sexington

Isn't it public now? I use mine a lot. I vastly prefer it to Facebook.

Aug 18, 2011#68

Allen who is Quiet

I use mine all the time. If I'm not seeing a lot of stuff from people, I figure they're just sharing with circles I'm not a part of.

I like following webcomic artists on g+ since it's easier for them to post art than it is on twitter. Anthony Clark posted a pretty bitchin' series of wizards a couple of days ago.
